Banana pseudostem weevil Odoiporus longicollis Olivier (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) is an important pest of banana. In this study, its male produced aggregation pheromone was identified as 2-methy-4-heptanol (2M4H) which attracts both male and female. In order to achieve maximum attraction for field trapping, an aggregation pheromone (2M4H), host plant extract (HPE) and combination of 2M4H + HPE were evaluated under laboratory conditions with wind tunnel bioassay. Maximum weevil attraction was observed in the descending order of: 2M4H + HPE > 2M4H > HPE, suggesting a better synergistic effect of host plant extract on pheromone. Not Available |
